This is the story of Emma and Dexter and begins the morning after their graduation from college. It's a Harry Met Sally type of story, but here's the twist: the story is told over the span of 20 or so years...but through the events that happen on one day and one day only: July 15th. This lends a sort of "what if" to each chapter. What if she had said this? What if he had only given her the flower?
I really really loved this book. It was a very quick, easy read, but with so much character development and insight. I don't want to say too much because a lot of the fun is in what happens next...and then what happens....and then what happens... But from the first page, I wanted to know more.
Okay, you're the second person this month who has said great things about this book. I think I need to pick it up!
